In reply to the discussion: It is not about the swimsuit issue it is about basic respect for women [View all]Jasana
(490 posts)And it doesn't matter if the SI photos were posted by a woman. We are taught to disrespect ourselves. I disrespected myself for years. I paid for my birth control since I was sixteen. I never thought to ask my boyfriend to pitch in, let alone an insurance company. It wasn't till Viagra came out under insurance that I really got the idea that birth control should be on insurance.
I have women I don't know disrespecting me every day by calling Mrs. Jasana. I've never been married. It's Ms. Jasana, thank you very much. Why do we have such difficulty with these things? It's simple respect. Assume a woman is not married. If she wants to be Mrs. NotHerOwnName then let her make the correction.
I'm sure the woman who posted the photos didn't even realize she was disrespecting herself. Things like that belong in the Lounge. I don't want to see that crap popping up in the middle of a political discussion forum.
So... everybody (male and female) get a clue.
